Policy of the
Corporation in granting exemptionunder Section 87 to 90 and 91A of the
Act.In ESI
Corporation's view, any liberalisation of exemption policy would not
only be contrary to the concepts of social security but also against
the objectives of the ESI Scheme and against the larger interest of
the workers themselves.

Nevertheless, if
in any rare case, exemption is to be granted or renewed on
compelling administrative exigencies, the only guideline to grant
exemption would be the superiority or similarity of benefits
provided by the employers and not because of any other
reasons.
